Iwo Jima: 50 Years of Memories

Over 25,000 Americans died. One of three was killed or wounded. After 36 days, it was over. This harrowing account of the Battle of Iwo Jima, broadcast on its 50th anniversary, is told entirely through those veterans who survived it--many telling their stories for the first time. With additional footage, and photographs, this release remains a moving tribute to those fought on "Hell's Volcano," and those who died.
